School is out, so family crafting is back - indoors and outdoors. Michela, aged 10, produced these masterpieces so far.

The butterfly mobile is very cute, we got the idea from a children's centre activity. It's a fun way to recycle packaging. Inside the open dice, the butterflies hang from pretty ribbons.

She also made a Lego chick and this wonderful painting at the Fitzwilliam Museum's Art Week. The glue featured is Gorilla Glue, which bonds a variety of materials, including paper! We got this sample from a friendly PR and we are now wondering what to do with it next.

I used to be a London Cheapskate, but have left the capital - hence the name change. The essence of the blog hasn't, it's still about crafts, gardening and recycling.
